Abstract

The invention concerns an apparatus for massaging the human body, for use in particular in performing an assess/press/pull type massage, comprising a working head (1) open in its lower part and containing means for forming a skin fold. The invention is characterised in that the means forming a skin fold comprise two pinching skin-pinching jaws (11, 12) pivoting about an axis (13) parallel to the plane of the skin and at the ends of which are fixed massaging fingers (11b, 12b), said apparatus comprising means for pivoting the two jaws (11, 12) towards each other and inversely. Additionally, the means forming a skin fold advantageously comprise a suction cup (19) mounted mobile between the two jaws (11, 12), connected to a vacuum source by a flexible conduit (27) and means (22, 24, 25) for moving the suction cup (19) vertically.
